Office Introduction

Our office and how we work

Tanseisha continues to explore the ideal form of next-generation offices that will support the "development of the foundation for working styles" as it strives to become a sustainable company.
At a time when the meaning of "working in an office" is being questioned, we believe that real-life communication still has great value and many possibilities.
As a company that enhances the experiential value of real spaces, we view "working in an office" as essential and are increasing opportunities for people to meet.
At the same time, we value the diversity and autonomy of our employees, and we have put in place the hardware, software and systems to enable them to choose their own working style.

Office formation: "Distributed network office"

In order to realize the office structure that is desired in this era, we have set up a "distributed network office" and have established functions at each location.
As we continue to experiment and verify in our own offices, we continue to update the design based on the experience we gain, and continue to challenge ourselves to open up new possibilities for the space and for ourselves.

  • ● The unique place to increase engagement at headquarters, branches, and other locations: "HEAD OFFICE"
  • ● "HOME" is one of the options for a place to promote solo work
  • ● We have set up a "SATELLITE OFFICE" between these two locations, where real communication can take place.
  • ● Konan Lab Mark Three [Mk_3], which is attached to the head office and plays a role in strengthening its functions
    In the "LAB" and "STUDIO" of Mk_3, experiments, verification and information dissemination are carried out.
  • ● "Shared office service" aims to make effective use of spare time, reduce travel time, and reduce the risk of information leaks

We are creating an environment that is necessary to promote flexible work styles that respect the diversity and autonomy of our employees, while also taking into account the perspective of BCM (business continuity management), including disaster prevention measures.

Shinagawa Head Office

In 2015, the company moved its headquarters from Ueno, the place where it was founded, to the Shinagawa area, which continues to evolve as the gateway to Tokyo.
The theme of the head office is "Future Creation Base" and the design concept is "Future Creation Gateway," and we aim to create a platform where tangible and intangible resources can flow. With the aim of improving intellectual creativity, productivity, and well-being in mind, approximately 1,000 sales, design, production, and other staff members are working diligently every day to create the space.
